FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1810.
The Pee Dee has for some time b en
boatuble. Our steamboats now run reguO
larly.
The present is a suitable ime for those
who have engaged Morus Multicaul s cut
tings, or wIjo have them on hand o plan .
If the weather should continue* warm the
buds will soon open, before which they
ought to be plant* d.
We understand lhatu lew persons in this
neighborhood have suffered litems*-Ives to
be imposed upon by staterra nts hat northern
Morus Multicaulis cubing arc b< tt? r than
southern. To any who have bought northcm
cuttings under such an impression we offer
a few of southern growth without charge,
provided they will plant them in the same
kind of soil with the northern* give them
the same treatment, an J r port 'o us the
result next summe$
The speech of Mr. Webster copied into
tho proceeding eo'umns vvus delivered a tin'
first of a series of agricultural m?e?mgs got
up at B oston during the session of the Legislature,
by Mr. Coleman, CouiiiiNsoner
for Agricultural Surveys. It is an omen
for good to the agiicul ure, an I of course
to the prosperity, of the co intry tiiat sueh
men as Mr. Webster, Mr. C lyunl Gen.
McDuffie are beginning to pay eurnest at^
tention to the subject*
The Legislature of Virginia have again
postponed indefinitely the election ol U. S.
Senator. The Sato uill of course have
but one representative in the Senate 4uring
the present session.
.*
Co.nghess.?Little is done still in this,
body. I:i the Senate the debute is continued
on Mr. Grundy's report against the
assumption of the S ate Debts, although no
one seems to favor any such project. From
the dt^ute it is plain that an effort is making j
to confound the distinct (ju-stions of divi- J
ding the proceeds of the p??W?c lands, and'
x
assuming tli<; stato debts, for t!ic piirpos"
of rendering unpopular the project of disiribu
i. g the proco. ds of the public lands.?
Among those who have spoken on the subject
me Mr* Southard on one side and
Mr. Calhoun oh the other.
The Pennsylvania U. S. 15 ink has made
arrangem- n*s to furnish to the Slate of
Pennsylvania a loan of $570,000 to pa\
the in crest of its debts, which the St twas
likely otherwise to fail in doing. A
few other banks co-operate ! in the arrangement
and advanced a part of the money.
Abolition Petitions.?Mr. Tappan,
Senator from Ohio, has refused to present
abolition petitions to the Senate, and assigned
his reasons; Tnc? most prominent of
which is that the petitioners ask for no
redress of grievances, and only for measures
winch are to affect not themselves but
the citizens ofthe District of Columbia, and
that too against the will of the letter.
Splendid Silk Premiums.?The Secretary
ofthe American Silk Society in a i advertisement
urging the members to attend the
meeting to be held in Baltimore on the 19th
inst. says:
Amongst other business, it is expected 'hat
the Society will then offer the following premiums
for the production of silk, viz
Five premiums of $1,000 each; five of
$500each ; fifty of $50each, and $1,000 in
orerniuins on manufactured silks.

On the death of Mrs. M iry, consort of B. F.
Pegu -s Esq of Chesterfield S. C.
And is she fled ! can I realize that
One on whose check the roso of health did

Lately blow has left the world to gaze with
Wonder at the vaccutim which her early
Triumphant exit has made. Death ! when
thou
Didst shape thy course across this range of
health,
Could not one less lair, less lovely, and less
Young, l!iy insati itc hunger satisfy ?
Could not one less fit. to move upon tlio

Thou didst to Iior, (cheerless to some) essoin;
An aspect mild as elluriul light,
And not one sigh did escape her breast, that
She could not stay, in this poor world of sin.
Fri nd of my warmest admoration, hast
Thou truly gone and left ine of count'n ince
Tale, and visage thin to mourn my loss.?
Who long have looked, for death to seize

Frame, and cat ma tiff the stag.: of action !

Furteok of heuv'u than of earth. How ofl
Tliou sainted one! have I seen thee softly
Move along the aisle and meekly take thy
Scat near tho alter of thy God while all
Who read thy count'nanco mild as the gentle
Dove's, knew that to thee the "dropping? ol
the
Sanctuary" were wecter far than all
Tim praise by tliis poor world bestow'd, Cat
Ah :
When from this scene I turn and my sad
thought^

Do take their flight to the peaceful place
where
Was 'by earthly home, I almost shrink and j
Wish with one of old, that mine eyes, and

A fountain were, could it aught assda e llio j 1
Breast of him, whose grief the keenest is- 1
but
I forbear ! and let gen'rous naturo tako
Her bourse. Otherwise than grieve he could

When round he casts his wishful eyes, and

Himself alone ! D 'solatc those halls which j i

Would commend. Weep! Mary's husband

[J The subscriber has for sale
? a large number of* very supec
rior iVlorus Multicauiis cuttings,
warranted genuine. O w.
ing to the culture, soil and disitancc
allowed in planting, the
proportion of large cuttings
is believed to be greater than
in any other lot offered for
- sale in the country.
|(J 1 he following facts will shew
the great superiority of large
cuttings over small. A little
_ more than an acre of the field
1. :in wliifli ilm trpps sfnnrl was
j III ff II1VII iiiv VI vv/v ^ wv??a %. . .
n manured in the hill last spring,
l[ at the time of planting, with
? rough stable manure. The
- j manure was covered but not
ft'mixed with the soil, and the
; | cutting planted near it ; the
j smaller separate from the
f larger. When the drought
h|of spring came on, the
manure absorbed the mois|
ture from the earth around
the cuttings, and although
they sprouted, very few
| came up?in some rows
,n not one. 'i he stand was in
1 proportion to the size of thf
cuttings. Of twenty-five about ^
and over an inch in diame- . '1
| ter, planted together, twentythree
grew and made fine
trees, now standing in their
places ; whilst within a few
feet o{ them are rows en*
i t
tirely vacant, ttiougli planted
at (he same time, in the
same way, and with cuttings
j from the same stock, only
'smaller, -The buds on a few
of the large cuttings were fhjurcd
in sawing; the two
which failed were, doubtless,
of this number. Here is conclusive
proof that large. cuU.'
; tings (such as a great *pfo* ;
portion of those now ofibred
for sale) will succeed to perfection,
in a bad season, 'and
! with treatment that destroys
! most of all of small and com.mon
size,
The Price is two and a
half cents per foot or half a
cent per bud, ^
A credit till January 184 L ^
